Default Ship coming in to RI 8/30

Anyone know the name of the ship do in R.I. on the 30th. My car is on this one and would hope it's early if possible.

My condolences.

To the original poster, just keep busy and keep your mind off it. It'll be here before you realize.

you can always rent a boat, go a few miles into the ocean, wait for the carrier using the name Audi provided you with, then cruise with carrier until it docks at port ( i suggest keeping a distance though ), then go see how it gets unloaded, follow up on transit, call the dealer to let them know vehicle has arrived, find out who the trucker is and ask for a ride to the dealership

My S5 Cabriolet arrived in Davisville, RI on June 4th. The "Serenity Ace" was the ship of transport. It released customs in port on June 24th. I waited a few more days before Audi sent a truck to transport the car to the dealer. I did not receive my "euro delivery" car (Audi Burlington) until the end of June. Customs treats Euro delivery's as used cars, not dealer new, and it typically takes longer in port to be released from Customs, so I'm told.. If you have a "factory" new car it shouldn't take as much time in customs. Enjoy!

I figured Audi give you the name of the ship when its out for transport? BMW does this as a standard and you can track your vehicles progress across the pond via the website below:
